Muezza56, thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Comment from Debbie7
Very nice.I could sing this if you took out a few words (just my opinion ) You don't need "as you" ,in lines 1,9,17. It's such a pretty line w/out it. Again just my opinion. "I'll cradle you in loving arms" you don't need (my) "I sing this lullaby tonight" you don't need (as). "God promises for everyone" or "God's promise is for everyone" might be a little smoother. Again I loved this so please don't be offended I just wanted to smooth it out. I think it has a good chance. Good Luck and Namaste, Debbie

Comment from Dean Kuch
This was a very tender and loving lullaby which bounces softly along with a unique rhythm all it's own. The sing-song style of verse and the repetitive stanza make this a wonderful, soothing song that any baby would adore.
Good luck in the contest. Good work!

Thank you for your kind comments and review.
Comment from NicciFaye
The picture how precious. I thought your poem was good. I couldn't help but not play that "Hush little baby don't you cry" old time lullaby in my head as I read this, which made it quite hard to read the orientating of the poem.
Overall excellent. Good luck and God bless.

I'm glad you liked it. I did have a very different tune in my head, as I notated in my notes. Thanks for your comments and review.
